Intro
Verse
This World We Live In Is All We’ve Got
We Have To Make The Most Of What We Have, Don’t Pine For What It’s Not
Don’t Idly Sit And Stare As Each New Day Goes Rushing By
Without A Thought Of Asking Why, You Just Don’t Seem To Want To Try
You Only Take Out Of This Life The Same As You Put In
And When The Times Are Lean And Thin Just Try To Take It On The Chin
Verse
This World We Live In Is One Of Greed
But The Greedy Pedlars Can Only Hawk Their Wares If We Create The Need
The Starving Child Sold As A Slave In Countries Like Taiwan
Could Grow A Free And Healthy Man If We Would Only Lend A Hand
It’s No Use Saying ‘Sad, But There Is Nothing We Can Do’
It’s Really Up To Me And You, We’ve Got To Pull Those Children Through
Verse
This World We Live In Is One Of Sin
When A Man Can Club To Death A Seal Pup For The Pelt That He Lives In
Or Arm Himself With Guns And Then It’s Off To Sea He Sails
To Hunt And Kill A School Of Whales So Some Damned Girl Can Paint Her Nails
Or Jump Upon A Horse And With A Jacket Flowing Red
And Tossing Back A Laughing Head Can Hunt A Fox Until It’s Dead
Verse
This World We Live In, We Think We’re Poor
We Can’t Afford The H.p. Payments On The Video No More
But Try To Think How Life Could Be If We Couldn’t Afford To Eat
And Never Mind That 3-Piece Suite - A Bowl Of Rice And Two Cold Feet
Could Be Your Lot If You Hadn’t Been Born In A Country That Is Free
Are You So Blind That You Can’t See - You Could Be Raped By Poverty
